About Cosmetic Gum Shaping

Cosmetic gum shaping, also known as gum contouring, enhances the harmony between your teeth and gums to improve the overall appearance of your smile. At Copper Hills Dental, our dentists and team offer cosmetic gum shaping in Safford, AZ, to help patients achieve a more symmetrical, confident look. This gentle procedure can reveal more of your natural tooth structure and create a more proportionate, attractive smile.

Why Consider Cosmetic Gum Shaping?

Some patients feel their smile looks “gummy,” where too much gum tissue is visible above the teeth. Others may have uneven gum lines that make teeth appear misshaped or shorter than they are. Cosmetic gum shaping carefully removes and sculpts excess gum tissue, creating a smoother and more balanced appearance.

Our dentists may recommend cosmetic gum shaping to:

  • Correct a gummy or uneven smile
  • Reveal more tooth structure for a balanced look
  • Enhance the results of other cosmetic procedures
  • Improve oral hygiene by reducing hard-to-reach gum areas

This treatment is often done in combination with veneers, crowns or whitening for a complete smile transformation.

A Comfortable, Precise Procedure

We use advanced techniques and technology to perform cosmetic gum shaping with precision and minimal discomfort. The procedure involves gently removing or reshaping excess gum tissue to better frame the teeth. Local anesthesia is typically used to ensure a painless experience.

Benefits of cosmetic gum shaping include:

  • Improved smile symmetry and proportion
  • A more youthful and attractive appearance
  • Enhanced results from other dental treatments
  • Long-lasting cosmetic improvement
  • Boosted confidence in your smile

Healing is usually quick, and most patients can return to normal activities within a day. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to support a smooth recovery and optimal results.

Cosmetic gum shaping in Safford, Arizona, is a simple yet transformative procedure that can dramatically change the look of your smile. If you feel self-conscious about your gum line or are interested in cosmetic enhancements, this treatment may be the right solution.
